Ancient Egypt is one of the world’s greatest civilisations, spanning 3000 years of history. But, even today, it is a land of mystery. For the past two centuries, since we first brushed the sands from the Great Sphinx, archaeologists and historians have been slowly unravelling its secrets. Yet experts believe some of the most important discoveries of this ancient world lie undiscovered beneath the desert sands.

Now, new technology is decoding some of Egypt’s most enduring enigmas, to reveal the hidden truths that are rewriting human history. Egypt’s Unexplained Files explores these mysteries - combining expert scientific analysis with first-hand testimony from archaeologists to shed light on the hidden world of the ancients.
